I agree, but he's talking about Swaggy P not Ricky Rubio
Yeah and Swaggy P is kind of sad this season

And Whiteside? The dude is just rampaging over the league like Godzilla. He has rebounded 26.5 percent of all missed shots while on the floor, a mark that would rank as the fourth-greatest ever. He has a shockingly soft touch on putbacks, jumpers, and hooks.

He has blocked 11 percent of opponent shots while on the floor, a mark that would break the NBA record. These aren’t empty blocks, either; Whiteside keeps a lot of them in bounds, and opponents are shooting an awful percentage at the rim when he’s around, per SportVU data.

He’s a legit threat to dunk anything on the pick-and-roll, which opens up driving lanes for Miami’s sad point guards and allows Bosh to gobble up easy spot-up looks

 I wanted to find a place for Reggie Evans on my list, but I couldn't. If he was getting enough time to punch dicks and pull off more of his patented 0/15/0 performances I probably would have found a place.

 I bet that finding good gifs for everyone is slowing the unveiling down

 The stress fracture in his leg has really hosed with him. He's finally playing again now (rarely) but I still don't know if he's right. Or maybe he's just not that good at actual basketball. At least he got paid

I may have voted him #2. I'll never forget you, JaVale

 Looks like Matt Bonner is going to place really high.

 Shame on all of you, for snubbing one of the top five players in the NBA, who came from nowhere, and wanted to get his nba 2k stats up.
